Basic Principles of the Science of Mind

This excellent home study course, first printed in 1951 and republished and expanded by the author's wife in 1971, is a clear, forceful presentation of how the Science of Mind works through scientific prayer treatment. The author provides an excellent pedagogical approach throughout, with helpful study questions at the conclusion of each chapter. Dr. Bailes actually shares the secrets behind his own healing of diabeties over a 4 year period. You can heal yourself and speed the healing of others through application of these principles. Contents include: Your Mind and How It Works, Thought and Its Power, The Focus of Attention, Why Man's Mind is Creative, The Sense of Authority, The Technique of Treatment, Treatment for Special Conditions, Practical Aids in Treatment, The Healing Consciousness. This text, along with his best-seller YOUR MIND CAN HEAL YOU (1941), work hand-in-hand to raise your consciousness and clear your vision, making you an effective, spiritually alive individual. Your money will be well-spent!

A good basic Science of Mind text

Bailes was an early Church of Religious Science minister. This book is a well-written explanation of Science of Mind ideas, less a "tome" than Ernest Holmes "Science of Mind", which was the foundation work for lectures and meetings from which the church more or less evolved. Although Science of Mind writers tend more to argue for their ideas than to really "evangelize a faith", this work has the slightest flavor of an evangelical work. The reader should not worry that it is off-putting, however. It is readable and its ideas are easy to access. If you wish to understand new thought ideas and an argument for their practical application, this is a good place to start. You may not be a convert (I am not), but you can find a good bit to understand what these Californians were doing, and how it links up with the entire new thought movement.

A wonderful in-home study course in changing your life.

This book is one to read and study over a 12 week period as the author suggests. It contains 12 lessons in learning how to manifest things in one's life while becoming the person you want to be. A mind-blowing book!
